Re: Heck I hate to say same as below I cant send email

You need the 'pop' and 'smtp' information from you mail provider. If you are
suing your ISP's mail account then they will be able to provide you with the
details. Hotmail accounts can't be used with Windows Mail (other than
Windows Live Mail). Take a look at your email providers web site for details
on setting up your account. For example my mail provider in the UK is
virgin.net, so in my case the details would be as follows:

pop.virgin.net
smtp.virgin.net

Other mail providers insist upon something like mail.virgin.net in both the
pop box and smtp, but only your email provider can tell you which to use.

You might like to take a look at this link from my website:

RE: Heck I hate to say same as below I cant send email

Try going to wurd.com, they outlook and other info regarding e-mail account
setups, some times it is also a good idea to deleter the current profiles and
re-configure, too many changes may not over write the files you are
attempting to change,hope this helps....Lloyd

Re: hi

Unless you pay the $20 per year extra for Hotmail Plus, the regular (free)
Hotmail accounts don't have POP access, only HTTP access.
Windows Mail doesn't support HTTP Hotmail accounts. You will need
to upgrade to the free Windows Live Mail program:
